IT would be well for the traveling community to
bear hi mind that their security depends entirely
upon their own encouragement of boatsthat have.ara-

tus. And that ever: individual making such suctionelec
tions is contributing towards a general introd of
an invention admitted by all men who understand the
principles, of the Steam Engine, to be a sure preventa
tive against those dreadful disasters. You have cer
tainly, in:the hundreds of explosions that have already
taken place, their almost daily occurrence, and the
thoushaili pf lives that have already been lost, a suffi
cient wahrug, and inducement to make inquiry for a
Safety guard Boat, and in evety case to give it the
preference. They have went to an a dditional expense
that your lives may be secure. Ought you not therefore
to meet them with a corresponding degree of liberalitY,
and by your preference show that you a ppreciate their
laudable endeavors to stop this awful sacrifice of hu
man lif.. They do not charge more than other boats;
their accommodations in other respects are equal, and
in many cases superior, and as there is one leaving
Pittsburgh every day, why will you run any risk, when
it is so c o mpletely in your own power to avoid those dis-

which the enemy has constructed to arrest the march
of the army. Fire 1' Empereur, et en avani!"-.;

His wound being fortunately not deep, he refused

The next day the soldiers were informed that tint ,

he had placed it in front of his tent to gratify their mai
